Articles about this product

I been snusing for a little over a year now and tried many different portions and Los snus brands. However, this one stands 99% above the rest and is rivaled by Prima Fint for my favorite los. Ettan Los takes a close second followed by Odens No. 3 and Thunder Frosted Los.

When you open the tin you will be greeted to a dark clay like substance with a slight glimmer of magic all over. The smell is great but the flavor is where this one stands out. The best way to describe it is a light, smokey tobacco with savory figs and herbs.

Roda Lacket Los is top tier stuff and anyone new to using snus or Los should try this immediately!

Great snus

This snus is awesome. In the loose version, the hints of fruit are definitely more subdued compared to the tobacco taste, however it is still there. The grind on this snus is something that makes it really nice as well. It is so finely ground that it form fits nicely against your gums and rounds to your cheek. I can see why it has lasted the test of time.

An herbal medly.

Roda Lacket is by far the top notch snus for me. It has a slight mountain-top, woodsy feel along with a medley of herbs and berries after taste. An excellent experience all the way around.

love the unique taste

this one just works for me I love the taste of the tobacco and then Fig taste that I get mixed together is just awesomeI would recommend it if you like loose

This is my absolute go to Snus! the ease of making a pris and the smooth wonderful flavor hinted with berries makes it an easy choice when I reach for loose. This is always on hand and is the deciding factor when I am looking at Ettan, General and Roda in the fridge, I always reach for Roda if I cant decide what I am in the mood for.

My number 1 go to los snus. The grind is kind of fine and almost feels silky on your tongue but will "mudslide" easier than coarser snus. For me the flavor is straight mild tobacco with some chocolate notes at times. I have never tasted licorice which is good because I hate licorice flavored snus. Just trust me and try it, you will love it. And as others have said, I hated the portions of this snus but the los is HEAVENLY!!!!!!

I have been dipping since my teens and love the loose snus, I cannot stand portions because they are to dry and doesn'tgive the true flavor of the tobacco. And no it does not have a licorice flavor like some of the other brands like Knox. I would compare R.L. to the Etten brand loose, strait tobacco flavor and alot better than Copenhagen snuff which I have dipped for years also Swedish snus does not give me indegestion like American brands. If you havent tried loose I would highly recommend it, once you try it your eyes will be open to a whole new dipping experience.

I'm not noticing the licorice flavor that some have mentioned, though I bought this one to try for just that promise. That aside, the chocolate and fruit flavor is very mild, perfectly done. This is a very solid snus that could easily end up being part of a regular rotation.

As the last person said, the Roda Lacket Portions are not very good. They have a fruitiness that just doesn't belong in tobacco. RL Los is a different story altogether. Sweet tobacco with hints of fig. It is divine. Not to mention, this probably the easiest to bake los on the market. I could probably hand bake it if I didn't have an Icetool. I'm a big fan of tobacco flavored snus and I didn't expect much out of this given the way the portions underwhelmed me. I will definitely be getting more of this.

I can't stand the RL portions, but I love this.

A bit raisin-y-licorice-y, but the tobacco flavor comes right through! As Rick said, not much salt, but not virtually no salt like the portions.

It even goes well with coffee. Not as well as Grov LÃ¶s in my opinion, but quite well.

Extremely well-ground, very easy to hand-bake, and nice hit of nicotine. If you want to try lÃ¶s for the first time, I recommend this or General.

What can I say, it's another Swedish Match winner. The first thing I noticed was that the tobacco flavor was very mild, nothing harsh or bitter. Light salt content, so those that don't like the salt would probably enjoy this. I don't get the same fruitty undertones in the lossnus that I do with roda lacket portions.

This would be a great "starter" lossnus for someone wanting to try los for the first time. This snus is finely ground, and would hand bake easily and works very well with the pris master or Icetool.

By far one of my favorite snus flavors.

I dont beleive the description is accurate. This snus has a very mild tobacco flavor. The flavor of this one stays the same most of the time. I don't taste much licorice with this. It does have a sweetness to it which is hard to describe. A very good beginner loose. Easy to hand bake. If your looking for a loose thats easy to hand bake, and has a tobbacco flavor with some sweet undertones this is it. If you don;t like licorice I think you will still like it. I personally didn't taste it at all. Very similar to triumph original, just not as sweet.
